Before all the tech leads follow suit, I want it to be known that I have always been a strong supporter of Assassin’s Creed Syndicate. From the moment I first laid eyes on the Frye twins, opening their hoods over the misty rooftops of Whitechapel and beginning to bicker in that loving but exasperated way that only siblings can, I I knew I would get along with them. But I never understood why so many others didn’t do it.

From the best Assassin’s Creed gamesSyndicate is one of the most original and charming combat systems – and its dynamic characters, missions, and world-building make up for what is admittedly one of the weakest combat systems around. Ubisoft stealth series. Things were rocky when the game launched in 2015, with criticism already being cast on Ubisoft after the painfully buggy Assassin’s Creed Unity released the year before. I think this fact, alongside the constant dragon-chasing factor in the wake of Black Flag’s brilliance, caused a lot of people to come after the Fryes harder than perhaps necessary. But now that the game has received a update to increase framerate on PS5, PS5 Proand Xbox Series hinted on Twitter in SeptemberThis is your sign to enjoy the benefits of Assassin’s Creed Syndicate pre-Black Friday sales and fall in love with the twin saga for the very first time – or, if you’re like me, all over again.

Two for one
